SquirrelMail is an Open Source project that provides both a web-based email application and an IMAP proxy server.

The webmail portion of the project was started by Nathan and Luke Ehresman in 1999 and is written in the PHP scripting language. It can be installed on almost all web servers as long as PHP is present and the web server has access to an IMAP and SMTP server.

SquirrelMail webmail outputs valid HTML 4.0 for its presentation, making it compatible with a majority of current web browsers. SquirrelMail webmail uses a plugin architecture to accommodate additional features around the core application, and over 200 plugins are available on the SquirrelMail website
